Cancer: #1 Global Killer

MEDICAL NEWS TODAY (www.medicalnewstoday.com) Cancer's Massive Economic Burden Reaches Nearly $3 Trillion A Year Globally 17 Aug 2010 Cancer's economic impact is greater than any other cause of death worldwide, according to a study carried out by The American Cancer Society and LIVESTRONG®. The study reveals that cancer costs the world economy nearly US$3 trillion every year. The joint study also looked into the economic burdens of other non-communicable and communicable diseases. Cancer is now the world's leading cause of death, followed by heart disease and then stroke, says the World Health Organization (WHO). The report, written by American Cancer Society researchers Rijo M. John, Ph.D., director of international tobacco control research, and Hana Ross, Ph.D., strategic director of international tobacco control research, reveals that cancer has the largest economic impact from premature death and disability when compared to all global causes of death. In a press release, the American Cancer Society writes: The data from this study provides compelling new evidence that balancing the world's global health agenda to address cancer will not only save millions of lives, but also billions of dollars. The report revealed that: · Cancer accounted for close to one trillion dollars in economic losses from premature death and disability in 2009. · The economic burden from cancer, at $895 billion, is nearly 20% more than heart disease's toll ($753 billion). · These figures do not include direct medical costs, which might double the amounts. · The loss of working man-hours and life caused by cancer represents the single largest drain on nations' economies, compared to all other causes of death, including HIV/AIDS, heart disease, and infections, etc. John R. Seffrin, PhD, CEO of the American Cancer Society, said: Cancer's human toll, in terms of suffering and death, is tragic and largely preventable. We now know that without immediate intervention, the burden of cancer will grow enormously in low- and middle income countries, with demands on health care systems and economic costs that are more than these developing economies can bear. Researchers gathered data from WHO that combine the death and disability dimensions of illnesses into a single summary, known as DALY - Disability-Adjusted Life Year - for 17 different types of cancer, and 15 foremost causes of death. Death and disability is responsible for the loss of 85 million years of "healthy life", the study reports. To reduce this death toll by one DALY, WHO recommends investing as much as three times per capita Gross Domestic Product to make an intervention cost-effective. The cancers which account for the largest costs on a global scale, and the greatest burden in developed nations are: · Lung cancer · Colon/rectal cancer · Breast cancer In low-income countries, the cancers with the greatest impact are: · Cancers of the mouth and oropharynx · Cancer of the cervix · Breast cancer The American Cancer Society says that available interventions to prevent, detect and/or treat these types of cancers can save lives as well improving the economic development prospects for many countries. Cancers of the bronchus, lung and trachea cost the global economy nearly $180 billion annually. It is estimated that 8 million people will die prematurely because of tobacco smoking by 2030, with four-fifths of these deaths occurring in low- to middle-income countries - approximately 30% of those deaths will be from cancer. It is estimated that passive smoking (second hand smoke) in the workplace kills about 200,000 people annually. Non-communicable diseases account for 60% of the world's deaths, yet according to the Center for Global Development, they receive less than 1% of the public and private funding for health. A non-communicable disease is one that is not transmitted from one infected person/animal to another. Cancer is a non-communicable disease, while flu is a communicable disease.

Sugar: the bitter truth

Dr. David Katz on "Whole-Food Based" Supplementation

NBC's Today Show (4/16/2010)
The Truth About Vitamins: Dr. Katz distinguishes the unique category of "Whole-Food Based Supplements" [WFBS] as a common sense and different approach versus the "multi-vitamin". While he did not mention Juice PLUS+ by name, it is the WFBS that he personally recommends.

Dr. David Katz on Juice PLUS+

Excerpt from article, "Do Multivitamins Cause Breast Canncer"
See Dr. David Katz’s full Preventative Medicine article at:
http://www.davidkatzmd.com/admin/archives/mulling%20multivitamins.Katz.4-9-10.doc

“…If we want optimal nutrients for healthy cells but don’t want to feed tumors, the source of nutrients may be crucial. The best source- the source strongly and consistently associated with lower risk of just about every disease- is wholesome foods. No supplement is a substitute for them.

But something called a 'whole food based' supplement may come close. Products such as Juice Plus, currently under study in my lab, take all of the nutrients from plant foods and concentrate them into capsules for those who simply can't or won't eat the recommended servings of fruits and vegetables daily (that’s most Americans!). Unlike multivitamins which take nutrients out of context and repackage them, whole food supplements maintain the natural array and concentration of nutrients- thousands of them- found in the foods themselves. It may be that nutrients only work as they should in concert, like the various instruments in a symphony orchestra. There is both science and theory to support this notion, although no decisive evidence yet that whole food supplements promote health over the long-term while avoiding potential harms of standard multivitamins. But it seems plausible to me that this might be true, and further study is well justified.”
